GLOCK vs. FNP

I'm looking into trading my G19 for a FNP9 can anyone tell me the pros & cons of each ? Quality, service, accuracy ?

The FNP has had some good comments made about it here and there. However, you'd be trading a gun (the Glock) with a very long track record of reliability, excellent availability of accessories (mags, holsters, sights, etc.), and easy access to knowledgeable gunsmithing, for a gun (FNP) with none of those things.

If I were going out today to buy a new pistol and it had to be one of the two that your choosing between, I would choose the FNP. Glock is a great gun, but no matter how much I try to force myself I can't seem to like glocks. The ergonomics are horrible for my hands.

Well, come check out the FN Forum if you want to know a lot about the FNP - lots of FNP owners there.

We have almost as many members as there are here, dude. Not bad considering there was only 156 in Dec. We'll hit 3000 in another couple of days.

Dude -- it's a JOKE! Saying "both of them" means there's only two - that's the joke.

Did you not see the laughing smiley? Do you not know what those things mean????

All true points. I wouldnt hesitate to purchase a FNP, though. IMO, it is a very good handgun. On a side note, right now FN is giving away a kit very much like the kit that comes with the Springfield XD package. Polymer holster, mag pouch, and some kind of "polymer training barrel". Only downside is that you have to send off a form to get the kit.
